Bellando was a employee at Levy Capitol Partners and was previously employed as an investment bank analyst at JP Morgan and Paragon Capitol partners. He was raised in Long Island, attending and graduating from Georgetown University in D.C.
After graduation, he then returned to New York and launched his career in finance. Kenneth was the only person out of his family to work in the business world. His father John Bellando is chief operating officer and chief financial officer at Conde Nast and is listed just below famed editor Anna Wintour on the magazine company’s executive team bio page. The New York Post reports that Kenneth’s brother John worked at JP Morgan as the bank’s chief information officer.
Because of Kenneth’s role and involvement in risk exposure valuations, some of John Bellando’s emails were used as evidence in the Senate Finance Committee’s hearings about the 2012 ‘London Whale’ trading scandal. Kenneth’s friends have begun posting photos and condolences on his Facebook page since his March 12 death; including a picture of Kenneth, posing with his two sisters...........
